— Shridhar Venkat, CEO, The Akshaya Patra Foundation. “On World Nutrition Day, we are reminded that a nutritious meal is not merely food — it is the foundation of a child’s ability to learn, grow, and thrive. Early nutrition shapes cognitive development, school performance, and long-term well-being, ultimately influencing the economic and social fabric of nations.

We commend the Government of India’s PM POSHAN programme and the proactive leadership of various state governments for prioritising child nutrition at a systemic level. Their unwavering commitment demonstrates how strategic public initiatives can drive meaningful, large-scale impact.
